Memrise
gives people learning superpowers. We aim to help anyone achieve
confident, real-world language skills in just a few short months; our
product is innovative and fun, and it delivers the goods.
This
year, we won the "App of the Year 2017" at the Google Play Awards. With
near zero marketing spend we’ve grown organically to tens of millions of
users, and we’re already profitable with a team of 55 (30+
nationalities).
We’re now looking to build out our engineering
team to take Memrise to the next level. The goal in the coming years is
to become the dominant product and pre-eminent brand in global language
learning.

We
are looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to join the team! (Salary:

If
you aren’t completely confident that you fit our exact criteria, please

interested in hiring ‘rockstars’ or ‘ninjas’. And we're at least as
interested in character as in talent.
